Excited to share our work, new in @ScienceMagazine: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…. We explored how sex chromosomes, gonadal hormones, and their interaction shape cellular responses in aging and #Alzheimers mouse models. This led to key insights on Tlr7 and neurodegeneration 🧵(1/5)

Thrilled to see this work out. More stories on angiogenesis coming in the future!
Congrats to the very talented co-first authors @AbelTorresEspi2 and @HLRadabaugh and all co-authors! #aging #vcid sex diff in vascular aging and implications for brain aging

What a week for the lab! A new precision imaging study just dropped - this time mapping the brain across diurnal rhythms in a male every 12-24h over 30 days. Beautiful paper led by @murataelle with @p_shapturenka and partner in life + science @laura_pritschet 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Keepin’ the lab tradition alive of having my first *first* author paper out in #JNeuro ✨… and we even got the cover 🤩 (1/7) jneurosci.org/content/44/38/…

Our newest pub📢: Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) can be beneficial or not on brain health. Why? 1) length of time since menopause (too late=not as effective); 2) type of estrogens used (E1 not as effective as E2) ++. Here we 👀E1 vs E2 on neuroplasticity onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

📢New Pub: Pregnancy history influences cognition & dementia risk in human females but does age of first pregnancy matter? & if so are neuroplasticity & inflammatory markers influenced in middle-age? @tanvipuri_ explored this question as part of her PhD sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
